ChESS - Quick and robust detection of chess-board features
نویسندگان
چکیده
Localization of chess-board vertices is a common task in computer vision, underpinning many applications, but relatively little work focusses on designing a specific feature detector that is fast, accurate and robust. In this paper the “Chess-board Extraction by Subtraction and Summation” (ChESS) feature detector, designed to exclusively respond to chess-board vertices, is presented. The method proposed is robust against noise, poor lighting and poor contrast, requires no prior knowledge of the extent of the chessboard pattern, is computationally very efficient, and provides a strength measure of detected features. Such a detector has significant application both in the key field of camera calibration, as well as in Structured Light 3D reconstruction. Evidence is presented showing its robustness, accuracy, and efficiency in comparison to other commonly used detectors both under simulation and in experimental 3D reconstruction of flat plate and cylindrical objects.

This paper details a method to take an image of a chess board and output a reconstructed computer representation of the board through board and piece recognition. Though techniques for board recognition have been thoroughly explored in the past, especially in relation to chessboard calibration, previous works on piece recognition often focus on non-robust segmentation procedures that rely heavi...
